Consumer prices rose by 0.3 % in September compared to the previous month according to SCB. Compared to September 2008 the Swedish Consumer Price Index dropped 1.6%, meaning deflation, compared with a drop of 0.8% in August. The Krona weakened initially on release of these figures but soon regained ground.
It seems to me as though I am back in Middle School, behind the “Loo’s” (as the ‘English call the ‘restrooms’), watching ….. You got it, a fight! Not between adults, but a bunch of kids, one of whom was usually the School Bully, with a bunch of bunch of little girls shreeking, “hit him, hit him” … Typically while the poor kid with glasses is down on the ground!
Will the “grown-up’s” please stand up??
As Bonnie Tyler sings so beautifully, “I need a
Hero” …. Please won’t somebody stand up and take charge!
s it too much to ask for the government to govern?
